About Trang Restaurant West End

Skip the flashy newcomers—Trang Restaurant remains West End’s enduring canteen for hefty, unfussy Vietnamese classics. Regulars drop in for proper nước dùng—aromatic broth ladled over heaps of noodles and cuts of beef, with custom plant-based bowls that draw just as loyal a following. Deep-fried salt and pepper tofu delivers a light crust around silken bean curd, and you can uncork your own wine at the table for a small corkage fee. A cold glass of tri-colour dessert rounds out the night.

  • Aromatic Noodle Soups: Steaming bowls of beef and vegetarian pho ladled with aromatic broth, tender noodles, and generous toppings.
  • Signature Silken Tofu: Crisp-shelled salt and pepper tofu fried delicate and golden over soft, silken bean curd.
  • BYO Wine & Cold Beers: Customers can bring their own bottles of wine with corkage, alongside an in-house beer menu.
